It pains me to see our young people gamble at a very tender age instead of engaging in things that are very beneficial in life or concentrating more on education but gambling has become their best option which is very bad but we can be of help by preventing harm and also providing resources which can help them have a fulfilling lives like counselling, support groups or developing effective solutions because gambling addiction is a very serious case and can't be easily prevented without help because it can cause some to commit suicide. So let's work together and create awareness about the consequences of underage gambling to help our teenagers build a solid foundation and also their wellbeing. Remember prevention is better than cure and together we can make a difference.
That's why we must doing prevention for our children by always monitor, guard them and teach them to stay away from gambling in their ages. Even if they grow up and more than 18+, we must keeps guards them as in this era, everything becomes easy to access. They can use internet to search, learn, and using anything they wants and many tutorials about gambling in the internet which can helps them to understand gambling. But if we can always tells them about the danger of gambling, they will not playing gambling and will avoids it so they will not becomes addicted to gambling. It's sad to see younger people playing gambling, even they becomes addicted to gambling so we must make sure that our children is not like other younger people who gets addicted to gambling.

Indeed. It's because of money. Those betting shops allowing minors to gamble are just after profit. Thus, regardless of the age, anyone can play as long as you have money. If minors are restricted to gamble, then underage gamblers would be lessen somehow. Of course, there's a way for them to play if they really want to since online casinos are already existing. But seeing these kids playing in public, wearing their uniform, is still not good and can only influence other minors to do the same.
That makes sense, even nowadays I can say that there are many children who are underage but they are already gambling. And also casinos do not seem to have age restrictions, but it seems that if there are small children gambling in physical casinos it is unlikely, unless they gamble by doing online casino gambling. Online casinos certainly do not look at anyone, all can gamble if they meet the requirements such as having money and accounts. After that they only think about profit, with so many people gambling, the more profit the casino can get.Don't do online gambling by wearing school uniforms with them without wearing school uniforms even in my opinion it is still not good. Because with their age that is not yet sufficient, it is not natural for them to do gambling. It is the same with those who are in high school seats,. If you are still in the school environment, you should not do gambling.
Sometimes I think that +18 age limit should be reconsidered and adopted to modern realia. This +18 = adult comes from ancient times. Current kids, with access to the internet are more advanced than kids 50 years ago. Its kids today who teach adults. They are much more friendly with modern digital world. Its kids today, who set up, install or modernize every single gadget for their parents. I will not surprised, that in 20-30 years, vehicles will be so easy to ride, that drivers licenses will be available from 14. Not saying that kids at kindergarten age must gamble, but lots of +14 kids already play slots and roulette using counter-strike skins, and "game currency", that parents buy them.
Their childhoods were shaped by a world of high digital connectivity; a world that gives many people a deep technological savvy even before adolescence.
However, in adjusting age limits, we cannot ignore the implications for child safety. Although some children have advanced technological skills, they may lack the emotional or cognitive maturity necessary to resolve problem gambling. Teenagers are still in the learning and development stage; they are vulnerable to the adverse effects of gambling practices, such as addiction and financial instability, which can hinder their future growth and success.
Therefore, even though technological advances are bringing children into a world rich in digital exposure, we must remember that age restrictions in gambling are not just a measure of technological proficiency. They have a lot to say about protecting the interests and strategies for protecting children, both now and in the future. Therefore, it is important to enforce current age restrictions. The goal is twofold: isolating children from the dangers of gambling and providing a healthy pathway to safe development.
However, a child addicted to gambling will cause less problems to himself and people around him if that would do an adult addicted to gambling. Children are much more limited with money than adults, and they have less chances to get them to continue gambling. As they are still learning the world, sometimes I think that they wont give much attention to gambling in general, but rather switch to something that are more in trend. This is not a call to allow them gamble, but how much can they lose? Lunch money and what they got as a gifts. What an adult can lose? Salary, borrowed money, and money he could get from pawnshops.
It pains me to see our young people gamble at a very tender age instead of engaging in things that are very beneficial in life or concentrating more on education but gambling has become their best option which is very bad but we can be of help by preventing harm and also providing resources which can help them have a fulfilling lives like counselling, support groups or developing effective solutions because gambling addiction is a very serious case and can't be easily prevented without help because it can cause some to commit suicide.

As the times progress, casinos have influenced the activities of all groups, both adults and even young people, casinos are specifically designed to be able to influence people's attention to go there and this can be seen from each person's response or perception whether he will be interested in doing so or not. No.
And again, according to the thread here, is it permissible for young people to gamble? Basically, this activity should be prohibited for the younger generation, they should behave well and gambling is a bad activity, so there must be a prohibition and special attention in responding to this.
However, I said above that according to current developments, young people are actually more adept at running casinos than adults in the past, today's young people are smarter and more intelligent, their sense of curiosity or curiosity is very high and if they haven't done it then in their life it feels like there's still something missing.
Nowadays, many young people like to gamble and most of them play slot gambling which is very dominant and easily accessible freely, you can bet according to your ability at any time so it is much in demand and popular with young people today.

Each country has different regulations, but what is clear is that if children are still in school, let alone wearing school uniforms to this gambling place, it is an unethical action. Gambling houses should place restrictions on visitors entering and gambling. It is true that there is no age limit for gambling, but wearing school uniforms should be prohibited, especially if someone cannot earn their own money, money used for gambling from their parents is certainly detrimental to the younger generation.
In my country, although gambling must be done secretly, if small children come, they are not allowed to come inside, especially those who are still wearing school uniforms. Gambling uses money, if children are allowed to gamble even though they are not working, it will have a bad impact on children, causing them to steal, skip school, and so on which will make their future bleak. Because even adults who cannot control themselves when gambling can have their finances ruined, let alone children who are still at school.
Maybe it's a good thing that gambling places have visitor limits or can see what kind of people can join in gambling, indeed with them being school children who are still in uniform and going in and gambling is very unethical, but if the children are already familiar with gambling in the sense that they are always want to gamble, maybe they will do anything, such as wearing clothes other than school uniforms, because even if they like gambling, I think they already understand that if they are in uniform and gambling is not allowed. Moreover, as you said, of course those who are still in uniform most likely cannot make their own money, of course they use the money from their parents to gamble. what is feared is that they will become addicted and become more daring to do things that carry big risks such as stealing.In my country, although gambling must be done secretly, if small children come, they are not allowed to come inside, especially those who are still wearing school uniforms.

Even those who already have jobs and are able to make money often experience many bad effects, but even that is due to the mistakes of each individual who gambles too much. with those who are still in school uniform and cannot make money, it is highly discouraged to gamble, even if I had a gambling casino, I would not allow them to gamble if they were still at school.
It improper in all forms. Nothing is funny about this, allowing children to gamble should be prohibited and even gambling houses accepting them should be fined or close down, how can children that are supposed to be in school be at the gambling house for what reason?, Money!! Lol.

Imagine the orientation of such children about gambling from that age what about when they are full grown up if they continue this way, financial crisis and emotional imbalance is certain.

Because nowadays the younger ones take gambling more seriously then school. Yesterday i got back home early so I decided to step out and go to a betting shop to catch some fun while gambling, I saw two teenagers gambling with their school uniforms on them.
I asked someone besides me why did they allow this boy's to come in with their uniforms and gamble, he said did they put any restrictions that younger ones are not allowed to gamble. I said but it's not normal, I replied him what if this are your kids would you be happy seeing them gambling with their uniforms on them. So what do you guys think about this situation at hand now.

Gambling is illegal in my country, but I don't know what the gambling regulations are in your country. It is very unethical to let underage children gamble in public places, especially if they are still wearing school clothes. But I'm not really sure what game they are playing, is it at a land-based casino or maybe you see them playing on their mobile phones?I asked someone besides me why did they allow this boy's to come in with their uniforms and gamble, he said did they put any restrictions that younger ones are not allowed to gamble.

Allowing schoolchildren to gamble in land-based casinos is not a good thing in a country even if there are laws regulating it. Minors should be studying, not gambling. Gambling can disrupt their learning process because addiction can damage their focus and concentration. Even non-gambling games can have an influence on them, especially gambling that requires them to spend money.
Depends on what's a teenager because this can be an 12 year old, or a 17 year old. While I feel like kids below 16 shouldn't be allowed in, most countries will allow 17 year olds in when they look old enough. It's a bit like situation with cigarettes. Smoking is discouraged but in most countries teenagers can buy smokes with no restrictions, unless they really look young, in such case the shop owner may decide to ask them for ID, but I remember that when we were young we'd choose the biggest and oldest looking guy from our group to buy stuff for us.
17 is acceptable for most of the countries and cultures that they are starting to think and act like a young adult. There's always these cases where teens are able to avoid these kinds of restrictions from what the adults can do. And it becomes an achievement for them if ever they bypass the doors of the physical casinos and they are allowed to gamble.
There's that sense for them and that's why they treat it as a challenge for that simple thing until they gamble and develop that habit that they are having hard time to remove.

Anything below 18 to 21 is something that cant be considered to be mature enough on which it would really be understandable that there would really be those things on which it isnt really just that right for a youngster or to those minors to deal off with specially with gambling on which it would really be best that as a parent we should really be monitoring out our kids when it comes to this because we know
that when it comes to exposure in todays tech and internet then it wont really be that so hard for them to see those things. This is why making them self aware about gambling at its risks
should really be taught as early as they can so that on the time that they would be able to encounter something which is related to gambling then they do already know on what they should
gonna do or simply having that kind of control and moderation since these are the information that instill up into their minds.
you're right on that, but the government you're talking about doesn't even know if the younger ones are participating in gambling. Cause one thing is that don't put any restrictions for the younger ones, the people to blame about this is the online casino betting sites they should put a restriction for the younger ones now, as those betting shops should also put a restriction in their shops as well cause the government i don't think they do have the time so far over that. So we are the ones to help ourselves over this situation at hand cause if the younger ones take this step it won't be nice for them.
The government knows but they just don't care my friend. If a person is wanted by government, don't you see that under 24 hours such person information and all they do is found out? If it's a develop country and you live in that surroundings, it will only take them some hours to locate you but some government doesn't just care about how people, why they gamble and how they gamble but will be ready to collect tax from you.
The government thinks that it's the responsibility of parents to make sure thier children doesn't gamble and that's true but the government need to take it serious with casino to make sure they have a system to be able to detect a underage person that is gambling, this will reduce the rate of underage gambling.

There are some casino sites that instruct you to stay away from the casino site if you are under the age of 18 before signing up for an account with the casino site. I think most of the gamblers who gamble in these online casinos should be 18 plus because gamblers below 18 will gamble but can never make the right decision in gambling and their emotions are more important in their decision making. If a gambler gives priority to his emotions rather than reality in gambling, he will lose by gambling. Gambling should be done at an age when the gambler has the capacity to make sound decisions. So I would say minimum age limit for a gambler to play gambling should be 18.
It seems to me that the existing age restrictions in the gambling industry do not always effectively prevent teenagers from accessing casinos. After all, it is quite easy to register on the site by providing fake documents or data. KYC procedure, of course, should help in the fight against such attempts, but it does not always work flawlessly.
Teenagers seeking to try their luck at gambling can circumvent these restrictions, which is a serious problem. It is necessary to strengthen the control and verification of the identity of players in order to ensure the safety and compliance with legislation in the field of gambling.
Some gamblers who are even adults and doesn't have a source of income actually struggle to gamble and I'm sure it will even be worse with these little ones because they would not have the emotional balance enough to be able to really get to hand losses as the older ones would.
It will definitely be worse because, at that age, their major source of income in the morning is either their parents, who gave them a school allowance, or their uncles and other relatives, who dashing them money.When they spend all this money on gambling without getting anything out of it, what do you think will be their next step?
They can easily get involved in illegal things just to make money that they can spend on gambling, and some of them, if given money to pay for something in school, can easily divert that money into gambling.
No matter how much gambling is legalized, gambling must have a specific set of rules and regulations to follow. A gambler must have an age limit to participate in gambling events.
Just like every other activity has certain age limits like you cannot drive before a certain age etc, same should be with gambling. Even though gambling is easy and even kids can gamble but they cannot be able to have risk management in gambling. Also giving access to the children to money for gambling is even more dangerous and may have a long lasting bad effects on the minors.
A gambling and casino policy states that no boys or girls under the age of 18 may participate in gambling. College students cannot participate in gambling because a student can never build an academic career by participating in gambling and casinos along with studies. However, in a country where gambling is legal, it must be accepted that the law has been enacted in the case of gamblers. If a country has allowed children under 18 years of age or school and college students to participate in gambling, it is a different matter.
A college or university-going students should not be allowed to gamble. The age of 18 is when a person is at university going and even at that moment involvement in gambling is not good for the student and his career. Keeping this in view, why not the gambling sites increase the gambling limit to 21 years as this stage the person will become more mature and can handle the money/situation much better and with more wisdom.

While it may be true that the government will most likely not know the full extent of whether the younger generation is involved in gambling or not, but certainly I think there is nothing wrong with making regulations or enforcing regulations about prohibiting the younger generation from engaging in gambling, this can be informed to the entire community by the government through television news shows so that parents can really limit and challenge the activities of a child.
Another thing is that I quite agree with you that the rest of this is the fault of the casino, the government should work with the casino, or the point is to tell the casino firmly to prohibit the younger generation from entering the betting shop to engage in gambling with an agreement and provide sanctions if it turns out that the casino violates the rules applied by the government, so I think this problem can still be solved as long as the government can be really firm.
government knows the reason why then make a law that children should not participate in gambling when they have not gotten to a particular age because when you look towards that you sense a lot because if children participate there will be stealing their parents money including people living around their environment when they don't have money to gamble they will find all miss to make sure that they have gotten money to Gamble so that is why it is not good for children to know how to gamble at area stage without being up to adult age
